hello guys, i have a problem.
i brought my car to the garage for an timing belt replacement after i did an visual inspection to it and found small cracks. they replaced the belt but they could not get it timed right and discovered that the exhaust vvt pulley was broken, it wobbled and was causing extra wear and stress on the belt. they replaced the vvt pulley and the belt. timed everything and it ran ok. when i picked up the car i noticed it was incredibly slow in the low rpms.... only in high rpm it feels a bit fast(er). because it did not feel right i hooked up my launch code reader and got an ECM-341B error camshaft position sensor exhaust signal missing. live data showed -0.5 to 0.6 degrees of deviation on the inlet shaft and -27.48 degrees on the exhaust with no fluctuations at all. I replaced the camshaft sensor, cleaned and tested the solenoids no result. could it be possible its not timed right ?
greeting jimmy

Try to go to global obd 2 mode and read the codes from there. Any chance you have access to vida? Have you checked pindrag on the connector to the sensor? Have you tried to check it's integrity from connector to the ecm? Any voltage you are getting at the connector?

if the cam hub isn't reacting it will give an error, its often the cam solenoid gunked up.rallypower100 wrote: ↑20 Jul 2025, 14:12 hello guys, i have a problem.

You appear to have eliminated those possibilities already.
2 teeth off will trip a CEL, so yeh, you..or.they, might have mis-timed it.
To me its on them.
I would reinstall the original cam sensor, tell the shop you didn't change anything and let them fix their mistake.
